After an introduction on legal proceedings and the role played by the technical experts, the important issue of the validation of the experimental data will be covered under different points of view. The impact of approximations and measurement errors will be first analyzed, followed by the metrological methods that must be adopted to provide correct scientific evaluations in the technical expertise. Finally, the the typical problems of forensic informatics will be covered, ranging from data interpretation to the reliable definition of timestamps and repeatability of operations.
